Welcome to Huddersfield

Right turns from Renfrew Street into West Nile Street are now legal for buses, so why not for cycles? Buses on diversion were using this turn back in 2018, before the signs were changed.

The signs in Sauchiehall Street have at long last been changed to 'No Motor Vehicles' in place of 'No Vehicles', recognising that it has been legal to cycle there ever since it was made a Core Path some years ago.

This is a two-way cycle route (V61), in theory, so there needs to be an Except Cycles exemption plate.

The Tour de France will start from Annemasse in two weeks' time!
